Hot Casino Stocks To Own Right Now

If you keep track of the markets during the average day, it is hard not to get sucked into the vortex of noise.

The media and pundits seem at times to act almost as shills and casino hosts encouraging players to pick up the action and move the money around looking for a win. The constant discussion of short term events that have little to no bearing on the long term goals and objectives can knock the most disciplined investor off their game.

The only two things that really matter to an asset based value investor are price in relation to value and margin of safety.

Nothing else not matter how worked up the talking heads may be at various times of the trading day.

Some of the things that are seriously pondered and considered during the day border on the ridiculous. Right now the talk of the day every day focuses on taper. Traders and money managers wax eloquent and the timing and pace of the Feds winding down of their bond buying program.

  Any thought that the Las Vegas gaming market would recover quickly after the recession has long since been lost, but there is a slow and steady recovery taking place in Sin City. High-end operators Las Vegas Sands (NYSE: LVS  ) and Wynn Resorts (NASDAQ: WYNN  ) have been seeing improved results as wealthy customers return to the casinos, but the lower end of the market, where MGM Resorts (NYSE: MGM  ) and Caesars Entertainment (NASDAQ: CZR  ) play, has been choppy to say the least.

  But there's still evidence that it exists, even if authorities don't push hard for information. MGM Resorts (NYSE: MGM  ) was forced to divest its New Jersey properties because of the company's relationship with Pansy Ho, whose father had ties to triads in Macau. Las Vegas Sands is under investigation by the U.S. attorney's office for possibly violating money laundering laws in Macau last year.

  What: Shares of Ameristar Casinos (NASDAQ: ASCA  ) and Pinnacle Entertainment (NYSE: PNK  ) fell as much as 11% today after the government brought into question the merger of the two companies.

• [By Sean Williams]

  Time to make the switch
  If I could name a sector that I'd certainly tread lightly around considering that consumers are tightening their wallets, it would be the casino sector. Casino companies rely on loose wallets and vacations to drive profits. This is why I feel it could be the time to say goodbye to casino and race track operator Pinnacle Entertainment (NYSE: PNK  ) near its 52-week high.
